1. Tangency: chords, tangents and velocity of a parametric curve

   This applet explores the velocity vector of a parametric curve, and its relationship to the chord r(t+h)-r(t) and the difference quotient.

2. Inverse of a function

   This applet shows the construction of the inverse of a function, and can be used to explore whether the inverse is a function.

6. Understanding the chain rule

   This applet explores how the rate of change of a composite function y = f(g(x)) depends on the rates of change of both f and g.
